A Second Chance

My name is Rosa Wilson and I have a 4yr old son who was diagnosed with Autistic Spectrum Disorder which caused his speech delay and developmental delays. My wish is to provide a learning tablet or Ipad that comes with programs to aid in motivating my son to take notice and learn. He has an extremely short attention span but loves mechanical things such as remotes wherein he pushes a button and sees the screen changes. I have heard many reports that reveal how much they can learn from these gadgets. I need help in being able to afford these gadgets as the ones that have the durability required in case of drops (which will happen with children with Autism)are really expensive. Please note, I titled the wish "A Second Chance" as Mason had a near drowining and was hospitalized 7/2-6/2012 and since the accident he has been striving to learn but becomes frustrated with the normal learning process. This is my second chance to be a better mom as I could have lost him and I have put all pride aside. Please help me help my son as I am a currently out of work and seeking employment.
